Chinese ‘Tiger’ Tanks of WW2: Vickers 6-Ton Mk. E of Tiger Company Resistance Remembered 2023-03-19 | This is the companion video to the one made by Tank Encyclopedia (which they have very kindly allowed me to host). If you enjoyed this video, consider checking out theirs as well (link: youtu.be/_hRfeq53EOk). The Vickers 6-ton Mk. E tank was the most commercially successful tank of the 1930s. They were sold to a wide range of nations all over the world, with China being one of the users. Possessing a total of 20 Mk. E tanks, it was the most numerous tank model in the Central Chinese military prior to the start of the second Sino-Japanese war. This video will take a closer look at these tanks in Chinese service.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.Sources:Kangzhan: Guide to Chinese Ground Forces 1937–45中日装甲兵全史 1918-1937中日装甲兵全史1938-1945抗日战争中国军队坦克装甲车辆图鉴中国武备图志装甲兵篇1930-50archive.orghttps://www.awm.gov.aubfi.org.ukcatalog.archives.govhttp://derela.plforum.axishistory.comhttps://m.krzzjn.commilitaryimages.nethttps://m.sohu.comhttp://www.tankarchives.catanks-encyclopedia.comhttps://uwm.edu/lib-collections/youtube.com
Plane of the Lake: Spartan 7WP of the Chinese Air Force Resistance Remembered 2025-01-12 | Links:vintagespartanaircraft.comyoutube.com/@N17634?si=Gifgd-P1IAahoeSVMany people have heard of the "Panzer of the Lake", but very few know of the "Plane of the Lake". Following the Chinese defeat at Nanking/Nanjing in December of 1937, Japanese troops entering the city came across a Chinese plane stuck in a nose-down position inside a pond. The plane was a Spartan 7WP, a unique variant of the Spartan 7W Executive that had been purchased by the Chinese from the US earlier that year. This video will take a look at the history of this plane and go into detail about how it ended up in a pond in Nanjing.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.00:00 Introduction01:13 7W Specifications02:56 7WP History and Specifications05:59 7WP Markings and Color08:25 13th Squadron09:06 Defense of Nanking10:13 Final Flight15:47 Escape from Nanking18:35 ConclusionSources:《中國航空掌故》Air Commerce Bulletin Volume 9Executive Reference Manual, Spartan Aircraft CompanySan Diego Air and Space MuseumSpartan Model 7W Executive Five Place Commercial Airplane A.T.C.

Kukan (1941) - Color Documentary of 1940s China Resistance Remembered 2024-05-04 | From the National ArchivesProduced in 1941 by Rey Scott and Li Ling-Ai, the documentary “Kukan” looks at the situation in China after years of war with Japan. Unusual for its time, the footage was shot by Scott using color film instead of black and white, making this a very historically significant documentary, especially for those studying Chinese history. The version seen here is freely accessible through the National Archives but is unfortunately, missing around 30 minutes of footage.
WWII Chinese Uniform Colors Resistance Remembered 2024-03-10 | During the Second Sino-Japanese War, as well as WWII, the Chinese military used many different uniform colors. Due to the sheer number of uniform variants and colors that were used, as well as the scarcity of color photos and footage from that period, this topic can be confusing for many. In this video, by using some rare, original color photos and film, we will take a look at the uniform colors of the Chinese Army, Navy and Air Force of WWII. Furthermore, this video will also attempt to clear up some common misconceptions about WW2 Chinese uniforms, as well as briefly talk about the reasons behind this diversity in uniform colors.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.Sources:《陆军服制条例》- 1936 versionLibrary and Archives CanadaSan Diego Air and Space Museumarchive.orgartsandculture.google.com/partner/life-photo-collectioncatalog.archives.govhpcbristol.netinchhighguy.wordpress.com/2019/06/19/american-volunteer-group-flying-tigers-color-photographs-part-1brohrer584: youtu.be/N69hqWKqSqY?si=_3D6t0mMIvgKUE3PSaco Navy: youtu.be/7V4LiGva0kM?si=0hR04YvaKUOPz0ZVRay Hinnant: youtu.be/2garlgPfYn8?si=nx_8h8NsKZedVAGa

Also known by its Chinese title of 对日抗战实录空军战绩, the original audio for this newsreel is unfortunately, no longer present. However, the newsreel depicts many interesting scenes of the Chinese Air Force around the start of the war. Some of the planes seen include Curtiss Hawks, Northrop Gammas, and Douglas O-2s. Other scenes include clips of Japanese prisoners of war, sunken Japanese ships, as well as Japanese planes that had been shot down.
Northrop Alphas of the Chinese Air Force: From TWA to WW2 Chinese Military Transport Resistance Remembered 2023-08-11 | When designed in 1930, the Northrop Alpha was truly a revolutionary plane, having an all-metal construction with stressed skin and multicellular wings, all features that can still be observed on modern aircraft. Most of the Alphas produced were used by Transcontinental and Western Air, or TWA. However, when they were sold off by the company around 1935, two planes would find themselves on the other side of the world, being used by the Chinese Air Force in the Second Sino-Japanese War. Although not very much is known about their service history in China, this video will summarize the available information as well as talk a bit about the background of these planes.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.Sources:The Northrop Story 1929-1939 - Richard Sanders AllenSan Diego Air and Space Museumhttp://www.aerofiles.com/_north.htmlhttp://airminded.net/alpha/alpha.htmlalchetron.com/Northrop-Alphacatalog.archives.govcommons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Northrop_Alpha_-_Smithsonian_Air_and_Space_Museum_-_2012-05-15_(7276903064).jpgcommons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pratt_and_Whitney_Wasp.jpghttp://cwlam2000.epizy.com/cafx12.htmdmairfield.org/airplanes/NC933Y/index.htmlgrandcentralairterminal.org/airplanes/NC961Y/index.php
German Medium Bombers in the Far East: China’s Heinkel He 111 Squadron of WW2 Resistance Remembered 2023-07-19 | At the start of the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Chinese Air Force lacked a sizeable medium bomber fleet. They did however, have a few relatively modern bombers in their possession like the Heinkel He 111. The Heinkel 111s in the Chinese Air Force were of the He111A0 variant, the earliest model to enter production. Compared to later He 111 variants used by the German Luftwaffe, the A0s were slow and had poor handling. Due to their poor performance, the Luftwaffe had refused to accept the He 111A0s into service, with these planes eventually being sold to China in mid-1936, just before the start of the Second Sino-Japanese War. Intially used by the Cantonese or Guangdong Provincial Airfoce, they were later acquired by the Central Air Force. The Heinkels would stay in use with the Chinese until the final years of WW2. This video will take a look at the story of these He 111A0s, examining how they ended up in China, their combat performance, as well as what eventually happened to the squadron of German medium bombers in the Far East.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.00:00 Introduction02:31 Cantonese Provincial Air Force05:54 Central Air Force07:20 First Mission10:19 Friendly Fire Incident12:22 Subsequent Missions14:36 Central Air Transport CorporationSources:浴血长空: 中国空军抗日战史 - 陈应明, 廖新华中國民用飛機圖誌1912-1949 - 朱飛虎陨落——682位空军英烈的生死档案 - 徐霞梅I Flew for China - Royal LeonardHeinkel He111 in Action - George Punka San Diego Air and Space Museumhttps://m.163.comarchive.orgcatalog.archives.govcnac.orgcommons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BMW_VI.jpgcommons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pratt_%26_Whitney_R-1690_Hornet_jaypee.jpghttp://cwlam2000.epizy.comflyingtiger-cacw.comforum.axishistory.comhttp://www.heyuan.gov.cn/https://m.xuite.net/blog/jpfu0313/blogsohu.com
Chinese Small Arms of WW2: M1A1 Flamethrower Resistance Remembered 2023-05-23 | The Flame Thrower M1A1 is an improved model of the Flame Thrower M1, which was developed by the US military in 1941. During the later years of WW2, a number of these flamethrowers were provided by the US to the Chinese troops of X-Force and Y-Force. This would mark the first time that flamethrowers were used by Chinese troops in any sizeable numbers during the Second Sino-Japanese War. This video will briefly examine the development and history of the M1A1 flamethrower as well as take a closer look at their use by Chinese troops during WW2.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.Sources: Kangzhan: Guide to Chinese Ground Forces 1937-1945The Chemical Warfare Service: From Laboratory To Field TM 3-375 Technical Manual - Portable Flame Throwers M1 And M1A1中国远征军战史云南抗日战争史archive.orgcatalog.archives.gov https://m.sohu.comsmallarmsreview.com/m1-flamethrower-of-1941-the-90-day-wonderwwiiafterwwii.wordpress.com/2019/10/27/wwii-weapons-in-shanghai-vj-day-to-1949
Chinese Artillery of WW2: 155mm M1918 Howitzer Resistance Remembered 2022-11-13 | During the First World War, the US purchased large numbers of French howitzers to supply the AEF. They would also acquire the licenses for many of these guns and produce them domestically as well. The 155mm M1918 howitzer is an example of this, being a license- produced version of the French Schneider M1917. Although they were updated during the inter war years as well as the early years of WW2, they were still considered to be quite outdated and would eventually be replaced with the 155mm M1 howitzer. Many of the older M1917s and M1918s would be provided to other Allied nations through the lend-lease program, with one of the recipients being China. In 1943, a regiment’s worth of these howitzers were given to Chinese troops stationed in India.

China’s First ‘Modern’ Armoured Unit: Chinese Armored Regiment of 1937 Resistance Remembered 2021-12-28 | The Chinese Armored Regiment, often incorrectly called the Chinese Armored Corps, was one of the first modern armored units in China. Formed in 1937, this unit used a number of well known vehicles such as the German Panzer 1 and Sd.Kfz. 221, as well as some not so well known ones like the Vickers Carden-Loyd Light Amphibious Tanks. Under the command of Du Yuming, the Armored Regiment would participate in some of the earliest battles of the Second Sino Japanese War. Some of the vehicles and equipment that survived these early engagements would continue to see use in other units for the rest of WW2 in China. This video will briefly introduce the Armored Regiment and talk about its organization, as well as the vehicles and equipment that can be found in this unit.*This video is not monetized and made solely for the purpose of education.Sources:Kangzhan: Guide to Chinese Ground Forces 1937–45《钢铁抗战—中日装甲兵全史1918～1937》《抗日战争中国军队坦克装甲车辆图鉴》archive.orgbaike.baidu.comcatalog.archives.govforum.axishistory.comhttps://m.krzzjn.comhttps://m.sohu.comhttps://uwm.edu/lib-collections/worldwarphotos.infoww2db.com

The town Nenjiang, located in Heilongjiang province, was part of Manchuria during the war and had been under Japanese occupation since 1931. It’s name comes from the Nenjiang River, or Nen River, which runs right beside it. Further south around the city of Qiqihar, a bridge over the Nen River would be the site of one of the first cases of Chinese troops resisting the Japanese advance, in an event known as the Resistance at Nenjiang Bridge.Image from:commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Site_of_Nenjiang_Harge_Bridge.jpg

Combining the Brodie, Adrian and Stahlhelm - Swedish M21 Helmet Resistance Remembered 2021-06-04 | Link to steel helmet stan's video: youtu.be/F3x5A_U-hC8The M1921 helmet was the first steel helmet adopted by the Swedish military. It saw widespread use from the Interwar years, throughout the Second World War and was still in limited use during the later years of the Cold War. Although it's a fairly well-known helmet, few know of the interesting history behind this helmet. Utilising design features from all 3 major WW1 era helmets, the Mk1 Brodie, M1915 Adrian, as well as the German stahlhelms, the M1921 could be considered to be the combination of the 3 iconic helmet designs. This video will look at the Swedish M1921 helmet as well as some of the experimental helmets that came before it.

This video will provide a brief explanation of the history behind the military cooperation between China and Germany and will examine how one of the most iconic helmets, saw combat being worn by Chinese troops in their fight against the Japanese.
